Good work culture at the cost of below average pays

Software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good work culture, visionary leadership steering things in the right direction. Flexible work setting. Surrounded by wonderful and helpful people.

Cons

Looking at old reviews from over 5 years ago seems like the were paying competitive salaries back then, but it looks like they never scaled up as the rest of the industry steered up. The salaries are now at the lower tier of the market, you’ll always make 10-15% below average for a software engineer with same years of experience. False claims of doing market research to keep “competitive pay”. The management is always under a tight budget and does not have a lot of control over raises.

Command & Control Leadership

Product manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Probably a few but the overtone of the overbearing leaderships shadows everything so much, pros just loose their value.

Cons

Have you heard the term "Command & Control" leadership style? Look it up. That's what we've become. We've had 3 sets of leaders. This one's the worst. Lots of people unhappy. Lots of people have been leaving over last 1.5 years. I'm betting more leaving. I agree with other negative reviews. It's pretty accurate. Stay away from the software/product department. Hardware might be ok?
